Improve water treatment performance across critical data centre infrastructure
Discover how reliable water treatment solutions can help maximise uptime and drive cooling performance across the data centre ecosystem.
Peristaltic pumps to meet evolving demands of data centres
As data centres scale up in size and cooling demand increases, reliable chemical metering is essential to maintain water quality, protect critical cooling infrastructure and maximise uptime.
Poor water treatment can reduce cooling efficiency, increase operating costs and lead to unplanned maintenance downtime.
Qdos® chemical metering pumps deliver accurate, repeatable dosing and process control in data centre water treatment applications.
Bredel and APEX™ hose pumps support efficient cleaning and fluid transfer operations, helping maintain water quality and system performance in the treatment process..
Our proven solutions simplify installation, operation and maintenance, helping minimise the time required to maintain effective treatment while giving data centre operators confidence that critical processes remain stable and under control.

Source water treatment
-
Inconsistent source water treatment will reduce cooling efficiency, increase energy and operating costs, and damage critical cooling infrastructure through corrosion, scaling and fouling.
Our chemical metering pumps optimise filtration, membrane treatment and other water preparation processes through high uptime and accurate, repeatable chemical dosing. This helps data centres achieve the desired water quality and quantity for their cooling system.
Qdos pumps simplify the dosing of polymers, biocides, pH correction chemicals, antiscalants and corrosion inhibitors.Qdos pumps help data centres achieve:
- Repeatable accuracy to 0.5% minimises chemical usage while ensuring effective process treatment
- Qdos pressure sensing kit helps verify chemical dosing and identify issues early
- A turndown of up to 30,000:1 for changing chemical requirements
- In-situ tool-free maintenance with single spare part minimises downtime
- Secure chemical containment through a sealed pumphead for cleaner, safer sites
- Long service life, lower total cost of ownership
Bredel and APEX™ hose pumps are used for system flushing, debris removal and fluid transfer. Their only wear part is the hose, which is replaced in minutes with standard tools.

Cooling tower water treatment
-
Poor control of water chemistry can impact cooling efficiency, increase energy consumption and drive higher maintenance costs due to scale formation, corrosion and biological fouling.
Biocides are dosed to control microbial growth, including Legionella, and support hygienic cooling-system operation. Qdos pumps can handle off-gassing, oxidising biocides such as sodium hypochlorite, helping maintain chemical feed where other pump technologies struggle to maintain consistent feed rates.
Qdos pumps are also widely trusted to dose acids and alkalis in pH adjustment. Accurate dosing of antiscalants and corrosion inhibitors helps protect metal surfaces and avoids destabilising water chemistry and wasting chemicals.The valveless design of Qdos simplifies installation, operation and maintenance by preventing air-locking or clogging. With a turndown ratio of up to 30,000:1 and flow rates as low as 0.1 mL/min, Qdos provides precise low-flow dosing for variable operating conditions. Their compact design also makes it suitable for confined spaces of cooling towers.

Power generation water treatment
-
We support chemical water treatment providers, OEMs and integrators with precise chemical dosing solutions that help maintain water quality, protect equipment, improve operational performance, and ensure dependable power generation for data centre infrastructure.
Qdos provides accurate, reliable feed of membrane pretreatment chemistries to prevent scaling, corrosion and fouling. This maintains membrane performance and reduces the additional pressure and energy required to move water through poorly treated systems.
Control and communication options allow Qdos pumps to integrate with wider water-treatment and site control systems. Optional pressure monitoring can help identify abnormal conditions.Sealed pumpheads, leak detection software and integrated alarms help contain chemicals, identify faults and reduce operator exposure to chemicals.

Enable sustainable data centre growth
Efficient water treatment can help data centres reduce chemical waste, maintain reliable cooling and minimise water and energy consumption.
Water usage effectiveness (WUE) is an important priority for data centres to meet sustainability targets. Reliable treatment can help operators manage water consumption and improve opportunities for water recovery and reuse.
Treatment of source water from rivers, lakes, rainwater harvesting pools and desalination systems supports water reuse and is needed when data centres cannot rely on municipal plants to meet their supply demands. These sources must be treated to the quality required by the cooling system.
The accuracy of Qdos reduces the risk of underdosing and overdosing, supporting efficient chemical use and consistent water quality.
Bredel hose pumps reliably handle slurries with a solids mass concentration of up to 80%. By enabling operation at higher slurry solid concentrations, Bredel hose pumps reduce overall water usage.
